GSI Summit Focuses on ‘Getting Growth Right’

The Office of Sustainability & Environment is pleased to again be sponsoring and serving on the host committee for our region’s 2nd annual day-long Green Infrastructure Summit, taking place on Thursday, February 16th at the Mountaineers Club.

The Summit, convened by Stewardship Partners, will bring together  thought leaders from government, academia, business, and the non-profit sector to share models for innovation and strategize on intersectional green solutions to stormwater pollution – solutions that improve neighborhoods, help us prepare for climate change, and further racial equity in our communities during this time of intense growth across the region.

This year, Summit organizers are thrilled to welcome MacArthur Genius award-winner, Majora Carter, as the event’s keynote speaker and Seattle Public Utilities’ new director, Mami Hara, as its closing speaker. There is still time to register!  Visit  www.12000raingardens.org/summit/  for additional information. We look forward to seeing you on the 16th!
